The Desk

 I'm really happy with how this miniature desk turned out.  First I constructed it with illustration board.  Then I covered the whole thing with thin wood strips that are a sticker on one side, some stuff called Sticky Bark.
 I painted the desk with an acrylic from Golden called transparent brown, which basically looks like a wood stain.
And here is the completed desk.  One prop down, several more to go.  The set is coming together!

Office Chair


There are a lot of props to make for my new stop motion web series.  One of the most challenging so far has been the office chair.  The cushions are painted foam, the rollers were made out of sculpey.  The bottom and back of the chair were made from illustration board and Magic Sculpt. There is also a decent amount of supper glue holding it all together.

 And here is the final chair.  There is also a screw hole in the bottom to secure it to the set.  It's not the most beautiful chair ever, but it will certainly work for the show.
